Two months is too little. They let him go. They had no sudden healing. To think that providence would Take a child from his mother while she prays Is appalling. Who told us we'd be rescued? What has changed and why should we be saved from nightmares? We're asking why this happens To us who have died to live? It's unfair. This is what it means to be held. How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life And you survive. This is what it is to be loved. And to know that the promise was When everything fell we'd be held. This hand is bitterness. We want to taste it, let the hatred numb our sorrow. The wise hand opens slowly to lilies of the valley and tomorrow. This is what it means to be held. How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life And you survive. This is what it is to be loved. And to know that the promise was When everything fell we'd be held. If hope is born of suffering. If this is only the beginning. Can we not wait for one hour watching for our Savior? This is what it means to be held. How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life And you survive. This is what it is to be loved. And to know that the promise was When everything fell we'd be held. For those who have not heard my school, Bluffton University, recently went through a tragic time. Our baseball team was heading to Florida for their annual spring break traing when there bus flipped over the overpass. We lost 5 of our players and the bus driver and his wife. One player is still in the hospital in Atlanta GA. Please pray for the families and the friends the boys we lost as well as the entire Bluffton community. This is a very difficult time for us all. Scott, Zach, Cody, David and Tyler you will be forever missed! |
